| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field bearing a multi-line Persian inscription in Naskh-style Arabic script, identifying the ruler and likely the mint name Shafurqan. The legends are arranged in horizontal registers across the field, with characteristic Ghurid calligraphic style. A partial dotted or linear border is visible along portions of the coin's periphery. The strike is typical of hammered billon jitals, with some areas of weakness consistent with the irregular flan. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Ghiyath al-Din Muhammad spent four decades methodically dismantling Ghaznavid power across Khurasan before turning his attention to consolidating the fiscal infrastructure of his expanded domains. The Shafurqan mint — located in what is now northern Afghanistan — served the commercial corridors linking the Oxus basin to the Ghurid heartland, and its output in billon reflects the pragmatic monetary approach of a dynasty more interested in conquest than monetary elegance.
Tye 134 jitals from this mint are among the more localized issues of the Ghurid series, struck for regional exchange rather than inter-regional prestige.
